At RAC we're all about leading change for the better — and what could be more important than having cleaner air to breathe for current and future generations of Western Australians?

"The data provided by the sensors helped to speed up the city’s decision-making. Today, the sensor readings have had a direct impact on public opinion. This year, we launched public ecological transport and eco-taxi, and we are launching a new system of dedicated public transport lanes that will directly affect the transition to eco-friendly modes of transportation.”

"Having real-time, very hyper-local data about the air quality where you are spending your time has great potential to impact people, in terms of the decisions they make, but also in terms of making that connection between the environment and health." 

"Now that we have collected a couple of years of data, we are starting a new phase of our project, which is analyzing the data and drafting our first reports. Clarity is helping us put together two internal reports and two public reports. In terms of internal reports, the first one is purely technical and allows our team to be more efficient and proactive in the maintenance of our network. As an example, it allows us to have 95% of our sites with uptimes greater than 95%. The second internal report aims to support our public policy team to advocate and influence for taking actions for better and cleaner air in WA, Western Australia.”

"After the Marshall fire we installed a total of 22 monitors in the burn area. The Node-S is solar powered, has impressive battery-life and transmits data via cellular network. That means we could put these monitors anywhere that the sun shines and that you can make a cell call."

“Clarity’s state-of-the-art monitors are the backbone of our Environmental Justice work in Grand Rapids. Accurate data is critical to our team and our community.”
